Q

What enzyme coverts pyruvate to lactate?

A

Lactate Dehydrogenase

17
Q

What is the main function of LDH?

A

To regenerate NAD+ so that glucose carbons can flow through glycolysis= NADH recycling

18
Q

What enzyme has a high affinity and low capacity for glucose to G-6-P and is uninduced by insulin?

A

Hexokinase!!!

19
Q

What enzyme is found only in the liver and has a low affinity and high capacity for glucose to G6P and is induced by insulin?

A

Glucokinase

20
Q

What enzyme converts pyruvate to OOA?

A

pyruvate carboxylase

21
Q

What are the fates of pyruvate?

A
  1. AcetylCoA–> TCA (PDHC)
  2. Lactate (LDH)
  3. OOA (PC)
  4. Alanine (ALT)
22
Q

What is ATP yield of free glucose compared to glucose from glycogen in glycolysis?

A

Free glucose= 2 ATP
G-1-P= 3ATP
Don’t lose an ATP by phosphorylating it
